DISCOVER ONE OF CAYMAN’S AMAZING TREASURES

div-3

Strange as it may seem, there is really a place called “Hell” in Cayman’s paradise.

Located in the district of West Bay on Grand Cayman, Hell is a unique natural wonder of rugged blackened limestone outcropping. The jagged formations are a result of millions of years of geological evolution, due to acid rain and consumption of the rock by carbonate-loving organisms. This erosion has left an eerie and desolate looking landscape earning this location its highly appropriate name. The rocks are estimated to be 10 to 15 million years old.

Visitors have been flocking here for decades, for bragging rights that they have “been to Hell and back” or have simply taken someone’s advice to “go to Hell!”

Naturally, the ‘Devil’ roams at Hell and no visit is complete without a photo taken with him, you may also catch a glimpse of an “Angel” while on site.

A postcard dispatched from Hell Post Office is also a good way to share a memorable visit to this site.

Hell is located on lands owned by the Cayman Islands Government, as well as on adjoining areas, which are privately owned and offers a similar experience.

  • star rating  We made the journey to Hell to see the rock formations which were very interesting to look at. We stopped in The Devil's Hangout Gift Shop where the exceptionally friendly... read more staff told us more about the history of the formations.

I expected more handmade stuff, but not as much as I thought. I did buy some prints. I hate when you see the original artwork but then are sold a print. I went ahead and bought some, but would rather have originals. You might find a cheap shirt or bracelet. If room allows the there's a lady who handweaves baskets and purses. I didnt have room as I'm doing a carry on only, but she's worth a look at. It sits on the corner across from the water down past Kirk Freeport and Atlantis office. It's just one big tent with about 12-15 vendors. Maybe it's bigger during high season? IDK. Anyway if time permits go there. If not the shopping boutiques in the port area aren't badly priced anyway.

So this time we were in Cayman in Dec. 2018 and I stopped by the market to get that cross. I was greeted by the most friendly and awesome person named Rosemary. She truly made me fee so special and told me stories about the island and her culture. She shared such a touching story bout one of the items she made with a nativity scene and how the little donkey was so special to her when she was little. I talked with her for an hour enjoying every moment of her stories. In the end she was so thankful I listened with a caring ear and she gave me two of those nativities for each of my children, whom will keep those forever. I wanted to reach out to thank her for her kindness and sharing such wonderful stories and memories about her family. I highly recommend stopping by. There are so many beautiful items for sale.

We decided to Bike to Hell....literally. Its a place of a few small cafe's, some tourist attractions and residential houses. The outlaying shoreline of Hell has these cool looking "jagged" rock formations. It took us about 5-6hrs to visit from Georgetown to Hell and back. Great time. We did visit a small resturant - called Alfresco Restuarant, a very small place overlooking the ocean. The food service was slow.....but is Island time, no hurry. We enjoyed a some fruity drinks and beer. I recommend this place.
    As far as the Bicycles - they are simple and easy to use pedals and comfortable seats. Anyone can ride them. Just beware on some of the streets - they are narrow and cars/vans almost glance off you as they go by. The island people are extremely friendly. Go exploring - we met a great guy with a story about growing up on the island. cool stuff....can't wait to go back to Grand Cayman. Its not cheap though...
